CYLINDER BLOCK

1. Check cylinder block for cracks by pressure

testing method. Clean cylinder bores, bearing

surfaces, oil passages in crank case

thoroughly. Check water jackets for leakages by

blowing air at a pressure of 5 bar & then dipping

the cylinder block in the hot water

(Temp of

water 70° to 80°C)

NOTE

The block with any leakages / cracks should be

discarded.

2. Check crankcase mating surface with cylinder

head for unevenness with the help of straight

edge and feeler gauge. If necessary grind this

surface just too clear unevenness. Measure

across the length and also across the breath.

3. Ensure that the minimum height of crank case

is not less than the specified minimum height.

4. Tighten main bearing cap mounting bolts to

specified torque

5. Check crank case main bearing parent bore

dimensions.

6. Install new pairs of main bearing shells

according to size of crank shaft main bearing

journal diameter, making sure that securing

lugs of bearing shells are properly seated in

grooves of crank case and main bearing caps.

7.

Install main bearing caps with bearing shells in

their respective position on crank case. Tighten

main bearing cap mounting bolts in specified

sequence to specified torque. Measure main

bearing bore.

8. If main bearing parent bore dimensions are

within specified limits, proper main bearing bore

dimension is automatically achieved.

9. Loosen one of the main bearing cap mounting

bolts. Now using a feeler gauge measure the
